Homeschooling: Methods that Win and Methods that Wipe Out

Event:

2013 NCHE Annual Conference and Book Fair

Interest:

General interest to all parents

This workshop uncovers the reasons why we get discouraged as we travel the road of homeschooling. We tie up heavy burdens, place them on our backs and struggle through each day using overly difficult principles and practices that drag us down. By mid-year, we are so exhausted and depleted that we wonder how we’ll ever get through. Consequently, the joy of following God’s will in homeschooling is missing. This should not be! Jeannie explains how many homeschool moms employ philosophies, techniques and methodologies that consume a great deal of time and energy with little result. She enables you to identify wasteful methods and empowers you with winning methods, including both the latest research in educational methodology as well as time-tested practices that the founders of our country used to achieve an excellent education. She gives practical tips and ideas that will breathe life into your school day and includes ideas for organizing your school day, scheduling and fitting difficult subjects into the week.

Jeannie Fulbright is a mother of four with a love for God’s Word, her family, homeschooling, science and encouraging homeschool parents. After graduating from the University of Texas in 1991, she married her husband, Jeff, an attorney in Georgia. Jeannie and Jeff have dedicated time to teaching and encouraging families, speaking on topics such as developing a consistent walk with God, building a strong marriage, nurturing a happy, healthy family and nuts-and-bolts homeschooling topics. Following graduation and marriage, she focused on building up the Christian community, teaching marriage and parenting classes and writing articles and Bible studies. After her homeschool journey began, Jeannie discerned an immense need for Creation-based, scientifically sound, engaging, easy-to-use science curricula. Her background in science, as well as her writing experience, inspired her to create the Apologia elementary science courses. Though her primary and most consuming occupation is educating her four children, ranging from elementary through high school, she is committed to arming parents with Creation science courses, speaking around the country and writing as the Lord leads her. During the summers, she is also working to complete a master’s degree. She always makes time to answer emails and encourage homeschoolers on their journey, www.jeanniefulbright.com.
